• Heat a little oil in a frying pan and brown the chicken skin side down on a high heat. Transfer to a large pan leaving the oil in the frying pan. Do the same with the chorizo sausage and keep the oil in the frying pan. You only want to brown and not cook the meat as it will cook further later on.
• Next fry the onions and peppers on a medium heat for 5 minutes or so until softened and just starting to colour. Now add the garlic, paprika, cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, bay leaves and thyme to the pan and fry for 2 mins stirring all the time and making sure nothing burns.
